LDL Technology and ffly4u Announce Comprehensive Asset-Tracking System for Supply Chain across Europe

LDL Technology, a company that develops and commercializes wireless
embedded electronic systems, and ffly4u, the European leader in IoT
tracking solutions for mobile, reusable and non-powered assets at
industrial and construction sites, today announced a comprehensive,
real-time asset-tracking system for the entire supply chain.

Called “Route Tracking”, the joint solution provides non-stop asset
tracking along the entire supply chain, from production facilities and
warehouses to delivery to clients’ sites. In addition to constant
tracking of the location of containers and their contents, the
sensor-driven, IoT-connected system monitors temperature, humidity and
any shocks throughout the journey from production to final delivery.

The partnership leverages ffly4u’s proven asset-tracking and
cost-controlling system, including transmitters, for containers and
their contents during shipment with LDL Technology’s telematics system
that is embedded in boxes in transport vehicles. Their solution allows
manufacturers, carriers and end customers to know at every moment where
the merchandise is and its condition anywhere in Europe. In addition,
the asset-tracking system eliminates the need for additional costs to
equip trailers with tracking equipment.

Philippe Lefaure, president of LDL Technology, said: “This
collaboration with ffly4u offers industrials new perspectives for their
asset-tracking and management. As soon as merchandise leaves the
warehouse, anyone along the supply chain with access to the system can
see a full range of data about the merchandise’s condition, which is
sent to the Cloud to be analysed. ‘Route Tracking’ also provides alerts,
and updates information on the real-time localization of assets during
transport.”

ffly4u CEO Olivier Pagès said: “Companies have high expectations for
asset-tracking in real time. The ‘Route Tracking’ solution meets and
exceeds those expectations by combining innovative technologies from
ffly4u and LDL Technology. It helps create value for companies and their
clients with a continuous monitoring of the whole supply chain. It also
enables carriers to create new services that can be monetised by their
shipper clients. Thus, the trailer on the road becomes an asset-tracking
tool for the benefit of all players of the ecosystem.”

Marketed by ffly4u, the new system will be available in Q1 2018,
targeting multiple industries, such as aerospace, automotive, chemistry,
construction, food, pharmaceuticals, retail and hospitals.
